As Leolde was getting impatient in front of Eric, who looked like he was about to cry, Isak approached Eric. Then he knelt down to match Eric's height and patted him on the head.
"Eric. Don't embarrass the Count Leolde."
"But I want to be strong. ......""
" He is the Lord of Ze'at and he has a lot of work to , so he can't have time for Eric."
"That's .......""
Isak is right. Eric is at a loss for words because he knows that. He is aware that he is being selfish. Even so, Eric wants to be trained by Leolde. The reason is quite simple: he admires him .
He dreams that if he is trained by Leolde, he will eventually become a hero. This is not the case, but it was unavoidable because he is a child and is prone to dreaming.
However, even at a young age, Eric was a member of the royal family. He understood what Isak was saying, so he couldn't be any more selfish than he already was. In addition, he is still being taught swordsmanship by his own bodyguard, in the Kingsguard. He was also being taught magic by a court mage. H e was was blessed with a good environment, so anything more than that would be too much.
"I understand. Brother Isak."
"Yes. I'm glad Eric understands.
Eric turned away from Isak and stood in front of Leolde once more. He bowed his head and apologized.
"I'm sorry for being so selfish. "
Leolde smiles when he sees Eric apologizing honestly. The boy was pure and intelligent, Leolde thought so of him.
"No, I'm the one who's sorry I couldn't do what your highness asked."
"No, I'm the one who's sorry for not thinking of yor position "
"Your Highness, ......"
"But, you know, maybe Once in awhile ...... you could train me. ..
Eric was trying to be patient, but he really wanted to ask Leold to coach him at least once.
He smiled and extended his hand to Eric.
"I promise. I promise you.
"Yes, it's promise !
The apprenticeship didn't come true, but Eric was very happy to have Leold'es hand in his, as he promised to train him.
Then Eric left Leolde's side and went back to his seat.
"I envy you, Eric.for making an appointment with Count Leolde.
(What? Is there something you want me to do for you?)
Leorde frowns suspiciously at Carlos, who is getting involved again.
"I don't want to ask you to do anything for me.
"Really? It's hard to believe."
Hahaha, I've only been talking to you for a little while and you're getting suspicious."
Carlos then grinned and rubbed shoulders with Leolde Leolde's expression twisted as he was squared up again without permission, but his eyes widened at the words whispered in his ear.
"I'd like to get a piece of the car business."
It was a top secret for Leolde or rather, for Zeat. They had shown off their multi-legged mobile turret during the defense battle, but they still kept the car in a secret.
"What are you talking about?"
"Don't be silly. I've already got the story."
"...... What do you want?"
"What do you think?"
"Are you trying to steal it from me ?
"It's not like that."
"Then what do you want?"
"...... I want my own car. From what I've heard in the reports, it's supposed to seat four to five people. But I want something cool that have seat for one or two people! So, what do you think?"
From the looks of it, it looks like he's not lying. Leolde wondered if he should trust him or not, but he was going to report the car to the king as soon as it was completed.
So, he thought about it for a while and decided that it would not be a problem to give Carlos a private car. He wondered if it would be a good idea to give him the car before rpeosrt to the king, but he thought that Carlos would be able to get away with it.
"I understand, but if you leak it to anyone else, I won't let you off the hook.
" Of course, I'm not going to tell anyone. I don't want to antagonize you!"
"Haha. ...... You have my word."
"Yes! It's a promise!"
Carlos smiles at him, and Leolde covers his face with his hand, thinking he's been played. He doesn't want to think about it, but Eric also suspects that Carlos is behind it.
(Is that too much to think about? - ......)
Of course, he's overthinking it. Carlos was planning to have a private car built for him, but he was wondering how to go about it. It just so happened that he saw Eric making a request to Leolde and took advantage of it.
After that, Leolde continued to talk with the princes. But it was not like talk with Carlos, it was more like small talk.
The rest of the conversation was about their sister . He was asked a lot of questions about what he liked about Sylvia
